Swedish stylist and trendsetter Lotta Agaton moved in to a new apartment and her usual bright white has been replaced by an all grey interior... Expect to see a lot more dark colours on the Swedish blogs from now on.

Some serene still life inspiration from a loft apartment for sale here. Besides the beautiful styling, this place also has impressive volumes, fantastic light and a central location in Stockholm (more photos in the link).

Thank you so much for your great respons to our clearance sale! We have received way more orders than we could possibly have hoped for and have been working hard all week to get the goods out to you as soon as possible. Thanks for your patience! There are still some great products left in stock (see below) but for most of them only 1 or 2 pièces so you'd better hurry if you're interested! Everything with 30% to 70% off, worldwide shipping.

Today all of Sweden and also other parts of Scandinavia are celebrating the arrival of summer (from what I heard it's more like cold and rainy today, but oh well...) so I wish you all a very Happy Midsommar!

After a great deal of reflection, weighing pros and cons, I have decided to close down my shop. With 3 years of existence, a steadily increasing turnover, great press coverage and lots and lots of happy customers (THANK YOU!), the shop has reached a point where it would require 100% of my attention in order to develop further. Today my time is split between very different activities (the shop, the blog, freelance assignments, teaching...) and I've often felt frustrated not being able to give each one of these activities all the attention that it deserves.

Running a shop was something that I've always wanted to do at least once in my life, and it's been a fabulous and very rewarding experience. Today however, I feel that I have more to give in other areas which is why I've decided to come back to where it all started: my blog. From this autumn, I will focus on giving the blog a fresh new start, developing interesting collaborations, devoting more time to writing / styling / photographing as well as sharing my knowledge about Scandinavian design and trends through classes and workshops.

Although it breaks my heart a little to let go of the shop, I'm also very excited about this new direction for my business and I'm convinced that it's the right choice for me now.

But before getting that far, there will be a fantastic online sale starting this Sunday 14th of June at noon (12pm), where we will sell out all remaining stocks at very attractive prices! Lots of great deals to be made that you certainly don't want to miss out on! The shop will close definitely mid July.

And to our customers who have outstanding orders at this moment, no panic, everything will be delivered! (and if for any exceptional reason this can't be done, you will be informed by email and entirely refunded).

This is a corner of my kitchen, a small nook just big enough for 2-3 people with a nice view of the garden. I just gave it a makeover with some fresh paint, for the rest I only used furniture and accessories that I already had at home. Quite happy with the result, more calm and relaxing than before. Now let's see how long it stays like this ;-)

During our London tour earlier this spring we were invited by West Elm to get our hands dirty by creating our own terrariums. Cool right? Thanks to at{mine} who organised it all, we got to play with West Elm's large collection of new season terrariums and many succulents and cactuses. My terrarium even got to travel home with me where I added it to my own little urban jungle :)
